Abstract: Provided is a dispersion and supply apparatus and a combination weighing apparatus capable of uniformly supplying articles to a plurality of positions from a dispersion table. A dispersion and supply apparatus 20 includes an acquisition unit 64 that acquires a load amount of an article on a dispersion table 22, a calculation unit 104 that calculates a deviation in a loading state of the article based on the load amount acquired by the acquisition unit 64, and a control unit 106 that controls a driving unit 30 such that a conveying direction of the article on the dispersion table 22 is changed based on the deviation in the loading state of the article calculated by the calculation unit 104.

Abstract: Problem To improve the efficiency of a combination weighing operation.
An article conveyance device 110 includes an article discharge container 10, an article conveyance mechanism 30, an article detection mechanism 60, and a control unit 90. The container 10 has outlets 20 to discharge articles A. The article conveyance mechanism 30 has feeders 40 including a first feeder 41 to an n-th feeder 4n configured to convey the articles A. The article detection mechanism 60 has sensors 70 including a first sensor 71 to an n-th sensor 7n configured to detect the articles A in the first feeder 41 to the n-th feeder 4n, respectively. The control unit 90 judges whether jamming of the articles A is occurring in the outlets 20 based on output of the article detection mechanism 60. The control unit 90 increases a conveyance intensity of some feeders receiving the articles A from places where the jamming is occurring in the outlets 20.

Abstract: In a combination weighing apparatus, a control unit executes combination weighing processing with a second value used as a target weighing value after controlling all of the hoppers so as to discharge the article while leaving the article in the conveying unit when the second value is less than a first value in a case where the target weighing value is changed from the first value to the second value.
